Chapter 134: Once You Have a Plan, Do It
At that time, Cheng Ming and his companions were clearing the land and accidentally dug a snake's nest, which frightened the poisonous snake in the cave and caused Su Ying to be bitten. Su Ying squatted down and checked the snake's nest.
"Go pick up some dry firewood and pile it up at the entrance of the cave to light. Winter is almost here, and these snakes need to find a place to hibernate. If you don't let them move, it will be dangerous for you to work in the fields when they wake up in the spring."
Li Laosan felt that what Su Ying said made sense, so he went to pick up some dry firewood and lit it with a fire starter.
Soon, a cloud of white smoke filled the snake cave.
Su Ying stood up and looked around, and sure enough, she found a puff of white smoke coming out of the ground not far away.
Su Ying picked up a branch and walked over, and found a king cobra vigilantly coming out of the hole.
When the king cobra saw Su Ying approaching, it straightened its body and showed an attacking attitude.
Su Ying took a step back and threw the branch in her hand out, accurately hitting the snake's vital point, and the king cobra fell to the ground.
Su Ying walked forward, picked up the snake with a branch and prepared to take it back.
"You continue to open up wasteland here. If you come across a snake hole, smoke it out with firewood. If anyone is bitten by a snake, tell me immediately."
"Yes, ma'am."
Su Ying returned to the yard, swinging the snake in her hand.
"Uncle He, do you think this thing is worth having?"
After Uncle He finished his work in the kitchen, he was resting in the sun in the front yard when he saw Su Ying throwing something that looked like a rubber band in front of him.
Uncle He almost jumped up when he saw it.
Oh my god, it’s actually a poisonous snake.
"Madam, if you scare me a few more times, no one will cook for you."
Su Ying grinned, "He's dead, what's there to be afraid of."
He Shouyi picked up the venomous snake and said, "Then I will cook a big pot of dragon and phoenix soup for my wife tonight."
"What is the Dragon and Phoenix Fight?"
He Shouyi smiled mysteriously, "Madam will know it tonight."
"Then I'll wait." Su Ying saw that the time was almost right, so she asked No. 1 and the others to gather and continue to go to the place where they had trained this morning.
"The content of the afternoon training is very simple, just to activate the strength of your legs and stabilize your lower body."
Su Ying asked number one to step out.
"I'll teach you a game."
"What do you want to play, ma'am?"
Su Ying spread her legs and squatted in a horse stance with her feet firmly rooted on the ground.
"Everyone take a horse stance, take a deep breath, and let your breath completely flow into your legs. Your legs must be firmly rooted in the ground like tree roots. Then stretch out your hands to push the other person, like this." Su Ying said, and pushed No. 1.
Number One stumbled and took several steps back.
"Your chassis is as loose as a pile of loose sand. One punch from someone can knock you off your feet. What's the point of having you? Come and push me."
Number One steadied his body and tried to push Su Ying's shoulder, but Su Ying was just as she said, her whole body was like a big tree firmly rooted in the ground, and he could not shake Su Ying at all no matter how hard he tried.
Gradually, Number One became serious, and the look in his eyes when he looked at Su Ying changed from the initial fear and dread to surprise and admiration.
He really couldn't imagine how much effort a woman had to put in to acquire such skills.
Number One stood up straight and said sincerely, "Please give me some advice, Madam."
Su Ying stood up straight, "You don't have to be discouraged. Now, two people will form a group, stand opposite each other, and start with the horse stance."
"yes."
"Follow the method I taught you this morning. Don't hold your breath. Each movement must be coordinated with your breathing. Exhale, inhale. When you inhale, absorb the essence of heaven and earth. Slowly settle it into your body, let it become your strength, and use the qi to circulate your blocked qi and blood."
The branch in Su Ying's hand hit No. 2's thigh.
"Ah!" Number Two grimaced in pain, "Madam, please calm down, Madam, please calm down."
"Your legs are as soft as mud. Are you going to play? Squat down."
"Yes, yes, yes."
Number Two took a deep breath and slowly squatted down.
Su Ying took a look and asked him to go to the front of the team, "Everyone look here."
"Pull your trouser legs up to your thighs."
Number Two did as he was told tremblingly, not knowing what Su Ying wanted to do.
"Okay, squat down now."
Number Two continued to do so.
Su Ying poked No. 2's thigh with the branch in her hand, "See? The muscles on the front of the legs are all soft. Can he exert any strength? Straighten your back, tighten your stomach, and squat down slowly. See if this part is solid."
The legs of No. 2, who was demonstrating the movement, began to tremble unconsciously.
"Everyone squat down according to this standard."
"yes."
After training for a whole afternoon, everyone's thighs were trembling. This was exactly the effect Su Ying wanted. The muscles were activated on the first day, and then the muscles gradually acquired memory and became easier to train.
For many days afterwards, Su Ying led No. 1 and the others in training.
No. 1 and his friends went from being uncomfortable at the beginning to having their muscles fully activated, and they became much more adept at training.
Early in the morning, Hu Wei sent someone to deliver the cotton and cloth that he had promised to Su Ying. Both large carriages were filled to the brim.
After Li Yong had his men unload all the things for Su Ying, he walked up to her and said, "Madam Su, our leader asked me to ask you if there is anything else you want. The leader will have someone bring it back in the next few days, otherwise we will not buy more supplies after December."
Su Ying was puzzled, "Why can't we buy supplies after December? Will the mountains be closed due to heavy snow?"
"Yes, don't think there's anything wrong here now, but next month the weather will be damn cold, and it will be too difficult to go back and forth, so we usually prepare all the supplies before December, so that we don't have to go out during the coldest two or three months."
Su Ying nodded in understanding, "Okay, I'll go back and make a list and send it to Hu Wei later."
"Okay, I won't bother you anymore. Goodbye."
When Su Ying returned to the main hall, she asked Jiang Yang to tell everyone that if anyone wanted to buy something, they should tell Jiang Yang, and then let Hu Wei buy everything that could be purchased.
It is cold in winter and there is no way to keep warm here, so we can only use charcoal. However, it is too expensive to buy a lot of charcoal, so Su Ying plans to try to make it herself.
Use the most primitive method to burn charcoal.
That night, she took the opportunity to go to the toilet to enter the space and began to look up information about charcoal burning.
According to historical records, the charcoal roasting process is not difficult, it just takes some time.
Su Ying has always been a person of action. Once she has a plan, she will just do it.
